Re: [JAWS-Users] MS Word Question
I just added the shortcut. Patti Thanks. I finally found out how to remove the tables and keep the text. If you want the information, for future reference, here it is: 1. When the document is open, make sure you are in the table. 2. Select the first word in the table, then press alt to activate the ribbon. *And the shortcut is Alt J, L, and then V Don't need 4. Press Shift Tab until you get to the "Convert To Text" button. Press Spacebar. 5. Arrow down to "Separate by commas", then tab twice to get to "Okay". Viola.

With the document open open your context menu with applications key or shift + F10, and turn off the detect table settings. 2. With the document open, open quick settings with the keystroke, Jaws key + V, and turn off the detect table settings. 3. Copy and paste the whole Word document into a text file. This will remove all formatting, then you can copy & paste the file back into a new Word document. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers. Sent from my iBarstool.

[JAWS-Users] Ms word question
Hi Im wondering if theres any way of having Jaws tell you how much of a page of a word document has text and how much is empty. Ive used empty lines until I get to a new page to get some idea of this but would like to know if theres a way to know how many lines of text fit on one page if youre using a particular formatting.
